I've released a new #portfolio reel for 2024, highlighting some of my personal projects from the last few years.

What vision can I help you create?

One of the simplest #CitizenScience things people can do to help meteorologists is to download the mPING app and report what they’re seeing, including precipitation, wind damage, flooding, etc.

Reporting is quick and can be done as frequently as you’d like. Many NWS offices use these reports for situational awareness and to confirm how ground conditions compare to what’s on the #weather radar.

Available for both iOS and Android by searching mPING in the relevant app store.

The front screen of the mPING app showing the user’s current location with rain selected as the parameter to report. Logos for the University of Oklahoma, NOAA, and NASA are at the bottom left.

The fall colors have arrived in Eastern North Carolina! 🍂
I captured this in Bertie County, using the DJI Mini 3 Pro.

I had fun with this one. While visiting my family in NE NC, I took my #Mini3Pro out for a (recreational) spin while my brother harvested cotton.

The system off the Florida coast has now been designated Invest 99L.
If it organizes & becomes a subtropical storm, it will be named #Ophelia.

Regardless of name or PTC designation, it will likely be a wet & windy start to the weekend for ENC.

I'm diving deeper into the #troPYcal scripts. Even edited a couple of the scripts to customize the maps for #Hurricane #Lee and #Margot.

Very cool tool.

Here's a short #thunderstorm #timelapse I captured this afternoon while visiting my parents in NE NC.
It went severe just after it passed (and after I quickly dropped my drone from the sky 🤣).

20 years ago today, I started nchurricane.com as a way to learn HTML/CSS, using my love of #weather.

Through it, I've learned so much from the weather community and met so many wonderful people.

And, hopefully, I've helped someone along the way, too.

Invest 95L is very close to becoming a depression or Tropical Storm Lee. It is going to put on a show in the Atlantic this week, while likely staying north of the Caribbean islands. should keep tabs on this, however. Details here: theeyewall.com/september-5-202

A density plot of 95L's future track which keeps it most likely north of the Caribbean islands but may bring it close to Bermuda on its way out to sea.
